Fender Stratocaster Vintage 1962 Fiesta Red refin

This 1962 Stratocaster is a great example of an early Pre CBS, 60s player Strat. It has a light resonant body, has an incredibly comfortable neck, low and flowing action and oozes "mojo" that everyone wants. The guitar was owned by one South African musician since the early 60's and has been played and played. It is these ones that are sure to have a killer vintage Strat sound, and this one does!

It's was refinished by a previous owner in black, but the original colour was accurately recorded when it was restored and was found to be originally Fiesta Red, hence the decision to redo the guitar in Fiesta Red, which was a beautiful custom colour. The finish has been aged correctly to feel period correct.

When we originally received the guitar it was in need of some light restoration and we've completed all of the work. We have documented thoroughly the restoration process and we are happy to share these additional images, along with a detailed description of the work performed, with any interested parties. Just drop us a message and we will be happy to provide any information you would like.

Here is a quick overview of the guitar and the original and non-original parts.

Original parts:

Neck - Original neck. Neck stamp of November 1962. Neck was stripped and refinished along with the body, but original wear was kept

The guitar sounds beautiful with the original pickups and plays with a smooth flow and low action that is very comfortable but importantly delivers that vintage classic Strat sound. The neck has a wonderful feel to it, showing some signs of divets but they are hardly felt when playing, however, they do add a wonderful patina to the guitar.
